Make an Appointment

The Theriogenology Service schedules appointments Mondays to Fridays from 9 am to 3 pm.

A valid Coggin's certificate is required for transportation to the hospital or equine park.

It is recommended for all elective surgical appointments that your horse's temperature be checked morning and night for three to four days before your appointment. If a temperature above 101.5 degrees F is noted, please call us for recommendations or to reschedule as long transportation or anesthesia for elective surgical procedures are not recommended with a recent fever.

If your horse any signs of respiratory disease (coughing, nasal discharge, etc.), any lymph node enlargement or any diarrhea, please seek veterinary attention and call us to reschedule your appointment.

Please bring any pertinent medical records or have them faxed to 607-253-3787.
